-an empty house - for once that is ! The tv is blaring as I walk in at 6 , as usual , though as I check all the rooms I realise , yippee I have the entire house to myself . Not that it isnt lovely most days to come home to find it occupied and ( usually ) dinner bubbling away somewhere in the background . But oh how nice for a change to come in , switch tv off ( why was it left on ? ) , and then pick up Nigella Express and start cooking .

- Nigella . What a thing it is to set in motion pork chops with a mustard sauce , get everything simmering then realise that thanks to Nigella there is a half bottle of dry cider sitting on the side juts waiting to be knocked back whilst e mails and blogs are checked ! Bliss.And tomorrow is another Nigella night , and the planned recipe involves a bottle of dry white wine , so guess where at least a glass of that is going , as the cooking takes place . As you see I'm not a habitual drinker ( anything to avoid migraines ), so even a little bit gets me excited these days

- Lots of updated blogs , all waiting to be caught up onandfinally- A tele[phone call from John Lewis who Ive been chasing all week , to say they will start hassling the laptop company if it doesnt arrive tomorow , which theyre half expecting as they have a delivery due . This is the best news of all .My blogging and photos will be so much easier .Im sure I won't feel half as gloomy as I did , for example this morning , with no real reason .

And why is this post entitled naked ? Cos thats supposed to draw in loads of readers .Ill keep you all posted !
